Letter to the family

Hi my name is Leigh, I’m a very energetic and friendly person. I love taking care children and absolutely love being a part of exchange programs where I get to share my culture and also experience all these different cultures all around the world. I’ve been a Au pair for only two years but I’ve been babysitting since I was 16 for family and neighbors and also had the opportunity to volunteer in a orphanage in my city when I was 19. I find being an Au pair so great because in some countries you can help teach your host kids English and maybe even your own home language. I’m very outgoing, caring, patient and always willing to adjust to new surroundings and situations. Being an Au pair means being able to problem solve and be flexible to all the changes that happen in a year whilst taking care of children, the schedule changes and the children grow.

Experience

Being a Au pair has offered me a unique opportunity for personal and cultural growth. I have a genuine passion for working with children and believe that being an au pair allows me to combine that passion with my love for travel and experiencing new cultures. After being an Au pair in the US for two year I realized that I still love the job and really want to experience it again in a different place and I just love helping families because I know how hard it can be to handle everything and how nice it is to have someone there at times to help you.

I see being an au pair as a chance to immerse myself in a different country, learn its language, and gain firsthand experience of its customs and traditions. I believe that living with a host family and caring for their children will provide me with valuable insights into family dynamics and child development.

Additionally, I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to the lives of the children I will be caring for. I aim to create a nurturing and supportive environment for them, helping them learn and grow while also providing them with a positive role model.

Lastly, I am confident that being an au pair will enhance my communication and interpersonal skills. It requires adaptability, problem-solving, and a high level of responsibility, all of which I believe will contribute to my personal and professional development.
